    Anyone fancy trying the palm trees that are grown from coconuts, Lidl have some in for £5.99, they are essentially young seedling plants but are large at 4ft+ tall :)

    Possibly but when you I've seen smaller ones up to £20+ at garden centres I supposed it all depends if you want one or not, in this case I don't :heehee: :snork:

    I agree. Having lived in the tropics, I'd say that coconut palms are not the most practical houseplant to grow in the UK.
